    Utah 2017-18 Utah Weather & Conditions

    The first real winter storm is about to come through. Warm southwest flow will affect totals in an unpredictable way but models call for 6-12" above 8,000 feet with potential for 12-18" today and tomorrow. It's a relief to see precipitation as it's been an extremely dry summer and fall.

    As someone who recently moved to the East Coast of the US for work, I am no longer a short drive away from my mountain, and I am forced to try and "plan ahead" on my ski trips.

    Does anyone have any experience with Deer Valley or Park City Mountain during the MLK holiday weekend? My kids have Mon and Tues off from school so from that perspective it's a good time for a trip. At this point, it does not appear that lodging or flights are out of line with cost expectations...

    Utah Will the new laws in Utah impact your ski travel?

    I'm posting this with caution, and ask that we remain respectful and refrain from getting into a political/religious hot mess. With the recent change in Utah laws about the DUI limit from .08 to .05, and the emphasis on cracking down on drunk driving, will you think twice about your next ski...

    Park City (Vail) vs. Park City (the town), What's in a name?

    Well a lot. Much to do with control of the name "Park City" and how it can be used and who can use it. Vail has applied for a trademark for the name and will push forward with the request. Here is the letter from Bill Rock to the Mayor of Park City: To the Honorable Mayor and Members of Park...

    Utah PCMR

    Finished a week at PCMR, mostly on the Canyons side. Observations: 1) Vail Resorts hit a home run. The place was mobbed on the 24th with long lift lines everywhere except 9990. I cannot remember this kind of crowd before the 26th in any previous year. Four important lifts were closed that day...
